Hot Hero Sandwich Project Archives: Generative AI Tests

by G. Jack Urso


As part of a Hot Hero Sandwich-related project I'm working on, I did a test with two photographs using the generative AI tool with the video editing suite Filmora.

I'm still learning to use it, and not sure if I will include it with the video project I'm working on. This particular effect works best with just a couple people as we can see people disappear and/or appear into or out of nowhere. Also, it's a little unsettling, particularly with the group photo and people who are no longer with us.
